Patent number: 11053015Abstract: An engine pylon that is used for supporting an engine, the engine pylon including a pylon body having an upper pylon and a lower pylon. The pylon further includes a fairing that covers the pylon body such that the upper pylon and fairing define a predetermined region. Moreover, the pylon includes a first drain that is configured to discharge a flammable liquid leaking from a pipe provided within the predetermined region into outside air; and a ventilation path configured to bring the inside of the predetermined region into communication with the outside air. The first drain includes a drain port and a drain pipe, wherein the drain pipe extends in a rear direction from the drain port and has an outlet at a rear end of the drain pipe, the outlet being located past a rear end of the upper pylon and a rear end of the lower pylon.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2015Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: MITSUBISHI AIRCRAFT CORPORATIONInventor: Jingo Tateiwa

Patent number: 10808620Abstract: An aircraft includes an accessory member that constitutes an engine accessory, the accessory member being arranged between an aircraft engine pylon and an engine, in an attached state to an attachment base member that is at least one of the pylon and the engine. The accessory member includes: a surrounding portion that surrounds at least an end portion of a tubular body connected to the accessory member; and a projecting portion that projects from the end portion of the tubular body. The entire accessory member including the surrounding portion and the projecting portion is divided so as to be separable to a left side and a right side of the pylon, and the accessory member is attachable to and detachable from the attachment base member by accessing an outer periphery of the tubular body from the left side and the right side of the pylon without removing another member.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2015Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: MITSUBISHI AIRCRAFT CORPORATIONInventor: Jingo Tateiwa
